Yeah, Westbrook is still putting up otherworldly stats. George wasn't even that great, shooting only 9-23 from the field (two late, unnecessary threes bailed out his terrible night); Melo only shot 8-20, but it didn't seem to matter at all. Westbrook is still Westbrook - very impressive.

It was against a terrible Knicks team. Lets see how they do against top teams first before labelling them as a potential threat against the Warriors.

Sure the Knicks are bad but Russ still was a facilitator and not a scorer. That was the big question for them entering the year. Could Russ adapt enough to allow Anthony and George to still shoot a lot. Game 1 was a good start.

What if Draymond suffers some kind of injury and it turns out his defense and facilitating is the linchpin that makes the Curry/Durant/Thompson fireworks all fire together. Westbrook, George, and Anthony all click, OKC has solid role players who can do the dirty work and OKC wins a championship and Westbrook takes the Finals MVP.

Westbrook would solidify himself as the greatest Thunder (still a stupid team name) of all time, over Kevin Durant in just the second season of his departure. How wild would that be?
